WEST FRANKFORT — Word that a man was caught driving in the buff through town has Mayor Marion Presley hustling to get the real skinny out about the Illinois community: West Frankfort is not a nudist colony.
Police arrested Justin Flora, 34, of Marion, Ill., on Monday and charged him with two counts of public indecency after several female motorists reported him driving without a stitch of clothing.
Police Chief Jeff Tharp says Flora said he just liked to drive unencumbered to check out the ladies.
Tharp says Flora insisted he didn't mean to offend any one in the southern Illinois town of 8,200.
Flora doesn't have a listed home telephone number and couldn't be reached for comment.
